ARTIST BIO
Fereshteh's painting skills developed while studying Fine Art at the French impressionist school of painting ‘Ecole des Arts Francais’. Prior to developing her artistic career Fereshteh studied Interior design and architecture.
Her husband’s career as a hotelier meant living in many different countries, her exploration of her art followed suit. In Malaysia, she was inspired by Chinese brush painting, studying under three masters in the art of calligraphy, Chinese ink and colour brush painting. Her versatility as an artist has expanded such that she has painted Chinese brush to watercolours to abstract acrylics - a truly astounding creative palette. Always producing exquisite abstract works taking their inspiration from nature, places she has visited and people she has observed.
An award winning artist, Fereshteh’s works have been exhibited in a number of international exhibitions including ‘Art Now’ at Oxo Tower London, the Authoren Gallery Yearly Exhibition in Munich. Germany and the Affordable Art Fair, London this year.
Featured Artwork - ‘Majestic Cascade’
Majestic Cascade is one of a pair of abstract artworks by Fereshteh Stoecklein painted during a residency in Germany. It is inspired by nature’s majestic waterfalls cascading down, nurturing and energising the earth. The yellow in the painting is the sun's reflection breaking onto the waterfall's water in motion and it is a simply a breathtaking sight to see. True Zeit Geist and natural beauty in play. Fereshteh's ability to take in natural scenes, be it flowers, nature or people and produce her own interpretation through her abstract art is truly wonderful.
The partner piece Majestic Cascade II is also available for sale online.
